EBV infection of primary colonic epithelial cells causes inflammation, DDR and autophagy dysregulation, effects that may predispose to IBD and carcinogenesis
EBV is a gammaherpesvirus strongly associated to human cancer.The virus has been shown to play a role also in inflammatory diseases, including IBD, Cigarette Lighter Power Adaptor in the context of which colon cancer more frequently arise.In this study, we show for the first time that EBV infects primary colonic epithelial cells (HCoEpC), promotes
